Ok. First off, I appologise for not updating my ABC head thread, but that is due to me having to do work for university. Now I will explain what I wish to accomplish. (BTW this is for a Uni project)
Right, I would first like to ask permission to do this documentary as I don't wish to make it, then everyone gets offended and I get bombarded with pms about not asking if I could do this or not. I would specifically like an admin/s to comment on whether or not this is possible (as they have the power), but all members of this community are welcolme to comment.
My initial idea is to do a short (around) 4 min film on how people feel about being part of this community. I would be mentioning some peoples names in the video (for quotes and the like) but specifically Adam (site owner) and Sharkhead (because I am building his Ironman helmet and would be showing how far I have got with it, in the vid). I would also like to mention how this community has helped some people (examples welcolme).
I know that there are exceptions like the recasting issues and so on (which everyone here wants to basically kill the people that do them), but I would not wish to mention that in this documentary. I only wish to talk about what we do, how we work as a community, how we feel about being part of this community, how helpful we are, like if someone is having a hard time making something and they think that they may never finish it, we encourage them with words of support to get it done (and usually it works), not how we hate people that rip other people off (as that is self explanitory).
I would also like to take a couple of screen shots of the website, like the main page and so on to use in the vid, if that is possible. And I would like to show some peoples finished work. If you want your stuff to be shown in the vid all you have to do is give permission for me to show it, and if I can fit it into the video I will. That goes for people that wish to be mentioned for quotes as well. Just give me permission, and if there is enough time I will try to fit you in.
A question for Adam (if you read this): Why did you start this website? (as this would start off the documentary)
After it is finished I will upload the video and post a link to it here for all to see.
So is it possible for me to do this? If so just post your fellings on this.
